Don't you have lots of leaves where you live, in the fall? I live in real suburbia, so I have to literally seek out and gather leaves wherever I can find them. Several trips in my car over the course of 2 months. Whatever I cannot use in my composter, I save in large trash bags with holes punched in them. Then I have a supply all thru the summer. By then they are all crushed and crumbly, perfect for mulch too.
That composter looks like it would be hard to reach in with a pitchfork to turn over the contents. My main one is nice and wide, with a top you can remove to easily access. Forget the name but got it at HD a few years back. Just looked online, they don't have 'em anymore but it is a well-known plastics company. I am lazy now and just do cold composting like a lot of members do too. Used to wet and turn and do all that stuff, but you know what they say, Compost Happens. And it does!
